The founding of the University was described by Gibraltar’s Chief Minister Fabian Picardo as “a coming-of-age” for the British Overseas Territory.
  The University’s main campus is at Europa Point, the southernmost part of the Rock of Gibraltar, within a range of restored former military buildings.
  Aligned to UK standards, the range of disciplines offered for research and study include Business & Management, History & Culture, Education, Natural Sciences & Environment, Health & Sport Sciences and Responsible Gaming. A number of business-led professional courses are also offered including Accountancy, Gibraltar Tax and Law.
  The University is a member of a number of academic and international organisations, including the Association of Commonwealth Universities.
